A white, middle-aged bald man with a mustache approached a female student walking home from Red Hawk Elementary School in Erie on Wednesday afternoon and offered her a ride, according to a safety notification sent to parents in the St. Vrain Valley School District.

The man, who was driving a vehicle described as a green sedan, possibly a Subaru, with bike racks on top, hailed the girl near Meller Street and Stanley Drive around 4:05 p.m., according to the notification. The student ran back to the school and notified staff, who then reported the incident to police.

Police will be providing extra patrols as a precautionary measure, and are asking anyone with information about this incident to contact the Erie Police Department at 303-926-2800.
